I have had the great pleasure of quite a few miles on the road after dark lately.

LED's are very bright and at least anecdotally around 20% of the jackasses on the road are too lazy to dim their headlights.

Make sure you also upgrade your fog lights to the leds that way u can really make people blind.

After rereading my post, what I meant to say is that about 20% of the vehicles have been failing to dim their headlights lately. I have no idea what percentage that is of the jackasses on the road, but I would assume it's not quite 100% of the jackasses on the road, because there's always someone who's even too lazy to turn their lights on bright, which isn't my concern unless I'm a passenger of theirs.

Just figured I'd clarify. :)

To be fair, it's hard to juggle texting, checking social media, and remembering to dim the brights all at the same time! ;)

The Silverstar Ultras seem to do the trick. I also put a pair in my 2000 Lincoln Town Car It was a huge improvement. Thanks for the tip.

If your headlights cost less than a hundo they are dog shit.
After learning this I just put my old set for sale for $175 OBO. They work as good as new with lots of years left in them. At this price they will go fast if your Lincoln has the V-8.

Sold

another vote for the Silverstars. Had them in a few pickups and a Tahoe. Simple bulb replacement. As long as the lens isn't cloudy you'll see a difference.
